Post by: Trev on February 12, 2007, 11:18 PM: I am pretty sure Carlo pulled a 1080 quite a few years back... I think Mark Noble was there to witness it.

Post by: christhejob on February 13, 2007, 01:10 PM: you're right - the legend has it carlo went to southsea one night, jumped out of the jump bowl a few times, 1080ed, then went home. no reason not to believe it really..

Post by: theRuler on February 13, 2007, 01:13 PM: on an old reaction vid i have from 1996 there is a guy with curly hair almost pulling a 1080 out the bowl at southsea. is that carlo? with rob ridge / hasselhoff hair?

Post by: Trev on February 13, 2007, 05:43 PM: that's just the half of it. there's also a six foot jump box and a 14ft half pipe behind what you can see ;)

Post by: Trev on February 13, 2007, 11:54 PM: definitely with you on that one andy.... carlo can still rip it with the big boys if he wanted to... he is still one of the best riders in the world today.... also everything he does is sooooooooo smooth....

yeh that's the guy trev, i'm sure
come to think of it, in that guy's section he is also busting large airs and twists on a vert ramp
Title: Re: 1080 over jumpbox pulled
Post by: Trev on February 14, 2007, 12:00 AM: that would be about right.... 13ft airs nearly 20 years ago on dodgy ramps.... 540's around the 10ft mark in the early 90's.... and he can still do all that and more these days..... the guy's a legend :4_17_5:

Post by: TwoBobRob on February 14, 2007, 12:40 AM: My old riding buddy showed me a picture of Carlo one time, no-foot cancan on vert. From years and years ago, his feet were at 11ft :shocked:
